      Hey, Barkley brought the Voyagers home to face several war crimes tribunals. He’s a sentient rights hero.

          i’m more of a Moriarty, except instead of asking the computer make me able to defeat Data they asked the computer to make me able to defeat Spot. And Spot still wins sometimes.

        Did he? I mean their captain became an admiral. Their former Maquis First Officer went on to become a captain. What tribunals did they face?

          They managed to pin it all on 1 or 2 “rogue” crewmen who perished along the way.

            Historically the Voyager crew were praised for returning home. Their starship became a museum!

      Does anyone else remember the guy on the lower decks of the enterprise who just sat in a room and avoided work (I.e. carrying the pads around that could have been emails)

      I think were Broccoli mixed with that.

    Ensign is a perfectly cromulent rank to achieve during a Starfleet career.

        Not anymore more!

        EDIT: Garrett Wang has discussed many times how Kim was cut from PIC scripts that Jeri Ryan had read which the character was promoted. So great that he got it finally.

    Picard’s shoulders appear narrower, the arms thinner and the chest ever so slightly hollower in the blue tunic. Is this an acting choice? Purposeful costume design? Does he just drop his chin a little more?

      You’re right. I wonder if it could also be direction? As in, subtly filming from angles that give him less presence. Or it’s because red stands out to our brains, while blue is more subdued.

        The camera angle favors Worf, he fills up the screen, not just because Dorn is a big dude.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally “othering” of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it’s free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not ‘inspire jamaharon’
